Coded continuous wave meteor radar [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2016 The concept of a coded continuous wave specular meteor radar (SMR) is described. The radar uses a continuously transmitted pseudorandom phase-modulated waveform, which has several advantages compared to conventional pulsed SMRs.

Diurnal variation of non-specular meteor trails [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 We present results of simulated radar observations of meteor trails in an effort to show how non-specular meteor trails are expected to vary as a function of a number of key atmospheric, ionospheric and meteoroid parameters.

Identifying gravity waves launched by the Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha′apai volcanic eruption in mesosphere/lower-thermosphere winds derived from CONDOR and the Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2023 The Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha′apai volcano eruption was a unique event that caused many atmospheric phenomena around the globe. In this study, we investigate the atmospheric gravity waves in the mesosphere/lower-thermosphere (MLT) launched by the volcanic ...

Studying a Long-Lasting Meteor Trail from Stereo Images and Radar Data
Atmosphere, 2021 Unique observation of a long-lasting meteor trail of about half an hour duration is described. The trail resulted from a burning meteor from the Leonid storm flux in the middle latitudes over eastern Siberia.

Meteor radar vertical wind observation biases and mathematical debiasing strategies including the 3DVAR+DIV algorithm [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2022 Meteor radars have become widely used instruments to study atmospheric dynamics, particularly in the 70 to 110 km altitude region. These systems have been proven to provide reliable and continuous measurements of horizontal winds in the mesosphere and ...

Mesospheric radar wind comparisons at high and middle southern latitudes
Earth, Planets and Space, 2018 We compare hourly averaged neutral winds derived from two meteor radars operating at 33.2 and 55 MHz to estimate the errors in these measurements.
